Yet, as husbands and human beings, we often choose being right or being selfish or being lazy over being a great husband and doing that which will make our marriage flourish. In Husband On Purpose, Conrad Deas has given us the step-by-step blueprint that can quickly transform your marriage by transforming who you’re being. Remember that who we’re being—or becoming—is always more important than what we’re doing, and yet it is what we’re doing that’s determining who we’re becoming. This book tells you exactly what you need to do in order to become the husband you’re capable of being, who can create the marriage you’ve always wanted. As soon as you do, and you can literally start the day you begin reading this book, you will become the man of your wife’s dreams—the guy she fell in love with and married so long ago. As the sole provider for my wife and our two children, I always thought my #1 role in life was just that—provider. Then, a conversation with my good friend and fellow family man, Jon Vroman, enlightened me to a new perspective: My #1 role and priority in life is to be the best husband/father that I can possibly be, and being a “provider” is only a sub-role of being a great husband/father. I realized that supporting my wife and positively influencing my children through the quality time I spend with them—FULLY PRESENT & ENGAGED —is the most value I can give to my family. Think about it. Ten years from now, your wife (and kids, if you have any) aren’t going to remember how many mortgage payments you made. They’re going to remember the impact you made in their lives, based on how engaged you were with them. They’re going to remember how you made them feel, how supportive you were, and the role you played in their personal development. Another realization I had, that was so effectively articulated and reinforced in Conrad’s book, is that creating and maintaining a successful marriage is 100% our responsibility and that we can literally create or “generate” anything we want for our marriage in any moment. My marriage mantra reminds me of this each morning when I read it: I am committed to being the perfect husband today, so that my wife and I experience the extraordinary marriage that we both want and deserve. If it is to be, it is up to me, and my wife will respond accordingly. Husband On Purpose will help you become a better you so you can be a better husband and build a better marriage. Hal Elrod, author of The Miracle Morning Preface This book started as a string of emails between myself and a few friends. I was either currently going through, or recently completed, my first 30 Day challenge of being a Husband On Purpose. I was experiencing changes in my marriage that I wasn’t even aware needed to take place. These changes had such an impact on me that I had to share with my friends what was happening. I’ve kept the content of what you’re about to read exactly like, or very similar to, my original conversations with my friends. I expanded on a few things to hopefully explain them better, while trying to keep the same conversational feel. So this is really just a conversation between you and me. My hope is that you will walk away from this conversation encouraged, uplifted, and educated on how you might become a better you and as a result become a better husband, who loves your wife on purpose, and builds a better marriage that benefits you both. Now… let’s talk.
